These mini cheeseballs are made with a delicious combination of sharp cheddar cheese, goat cheese, fresh rosemary and lemon juice, and are coated in chopped cranberries and pistachios. So festive and perfect for the holidays!
Shred the cheddar cheese, finely chop the rosemary leaves, and juice the lemon.
In a mixing bowl, combine the goat cheese, cheddar cheese, rosemary, lemon juice, and black pepper. Set aside.
Cranberry Pistachio Coating
Add the cranberries and pistachios to a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Pour contents onto a plate.
Form the cheese mixture into balls and roll them in the coating,
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
Be careful to not over process the cranberries and pistachios or they will become mushy.
I use a small scoop when forming the cheeseballs to keep them all uniform in size.
Serve them with crackers and maybe even some fresh fruit. You could drizzle them with a little honey or insert pretzel sticks into them. Either way, your guests will love and devour them!
